‘Platonic Intimacy’ by Lora Mathis 💗
Kiss your friends’ faces more Destroy the belief that Intimacy must be reserved for Monogamous relationships Be more loving Embrace platonic intimacy Embrace vulnerability Use emotionality as a Radical tactic against a Society which teaches you That emotions Are a sign of weakness Tell more people You care about them Hold their hands Tell others you Are proud of them Offer support readily Take care of the People around you

1 in 4 adults in the U.S. are disabled.
Background of crumpled black paper with off white lettering that reads "if you're wondering which of the recent executive orders will affect the disability community, the answer is ALL OF THEM. Disabled people are a part of every marginalized community." @centeringdisabity

Post by @iamragesparkle I was at a shitty crustpunk bar once getting an after-work beer. One of those shitholes where the bartenders clearly hate you. So the bartender and I were ignoring one another when someone sits next to me and he immediately says, "no. get out." And the dude next to me says, "hey i'm not doing anything, i'm a paying customer." and the bartender reaches under the counter for a bat or something and says, "out. now." and the dude leaves, kind of yelling. And he was dressed in a punk uniform, I noticed Anyway, l asked what that was about and the bartender was like, "you didn't see his vest but it was all nazi shit. Iron crosses and stuff. You get to recognize them." And i was like, ohok and he continues. "you have to nip it in the bud immediately. These guys come in and it's always a nice, polite one. And you serve them because you don't want to cause a scene. And then they become a regular and after awhile they bring a friend. And that dude is cool too. And then THEY bring friends and the friends bring friends and they stop being cool and then you realize, oh shit, this is a Nazi bar now. And it's too late because they're entrenched and if you try to kick them out, they cause a PROBLEM. So you have to shut them down. And i was like, 'oh damn.' and he said "yeah, you have to ignore their reasonable arguments becauca their end goal is to be terrible, awful people." And then he went back to ignoring me. But I haven't forgotten that at all.

A tweet from David Lynch: Dear Twitter Friends, what are your feelings about today's U.S. politicians? I'm not so sure they are working for the citizens of the USA. 12:32 PM 5/17/13

Yesterday I finished Sophie Strand’s The Madonna Secret, and damn I needed this book. 1/
A book titled The Madonna Secret by Sophie Strand lies on a yellow bedspread with white floral design. On the cover sits a light-skinned woman with dark hair and eyes. She is dressed in a flowing pink gown and holding a lily. At her feet lies a skull. Above her is a dove. Over one shoulder is a pink sky with sun; over the other is a dark sky with moon.

Text on a light beige back ground. At the top right reads “On Cristmas”. Body of text:“Christmas is not a story of escapism. If you are someone who believes that God was born in a body today, then you should believe in dignity in the body. Then you should believe in challenging empire in protection of the dignity of every person and place. This is our call today. An end to massacre and genocide. A reclamation of the most beautiful parts of the human soul. Cole Arthur Riley BLACK LITURGIES”

Happy Winter Solstice ✨
Painting by Tijana Lukovic
A barefoot witch holds a luminous solstice sun in the dark forest, led by a fox. Creatures sleep in their burrows while a full moon peeks through bare branches. Mushrooms, soil, roots, stars, the moon’s reflection, and a forest sprite are visible.

I miss being able to drive. This is from a stop on my morning commute six years ago.
A grove of slender trees is surrounded by moss and fallen leaves inside a darkly-lit misty fog.

'Dryas octopetala' by Julya Hajnoczky. Isn’t it incredible?

Text: People don’t realize that identity politics have always existed; we’re just forgetting that white is an identity. White identity politics have been the norm for years, and I think it’s absurd that we’re suddenly saying, ‘this is nothing but identity politics,’ as if the conservative right isn’t identity politics, as if every politician that’s ever been in Congress hasn’t been steeped in identity politics. This nation was founded on identity politics and to pretend otherwise just allows whiteness to work with complete impunity.

Um, hi. First post here. Here’s a photo of a mushroom, taken 2 Octobers ago. I’m hoping my body will let me get back into the woods someday soon!
